Ric Drasin started training clients in the mid-60's when he ran a chain of health clubs. He also taught classes in fitness, bodybuilding and diet at the YMCA. In 1970, Ric worked out at GOLD'S GYM in Venice where he trained with Arnold Schwarzenegger, becoming Arnold's training partner for the next four years. The two also trained with Joe Weider, discussing new routines and diets and using every method possible to get their results. Ric later trained with Lou Ferrigno as Ric joined "The Incredible Hulk" series as the 'Demi Hulk' -- the middle transformation on the show. In addition, Ric has a background in Pro Wrestling since 1965 as the NWA,CCW,AWA,AWF and WWF's THE EQUALIZER, and has trained many students for Pro Wrestling.
